DeanCW Posted July 27, 2015 #1 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I have returned from a two week Caribbean cruise like no other before. At the first port a Princess ship was there about to leave the same time as us. Our two ships had a great experience shouting, singing, and it was one of those passenger build-ups where everyone joined in. Over the next two weeks we bumped into the same ship with the same passengers (or I think they were the same as the passengers all joined in again) five times at different ports. We ended up making friends with people not on our ship, and it was sad to leave at the final port. How common is this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zqvol Posted July 27, 2015 #2 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Very common. There are only so many places that the ships visit and schedules tend to overlap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKman2495 Posted July 27, 2015 #3 Share Posted July 27, 2015 How common is it to bump into the the same ship multiple times? It depends on how much I've been drinking....;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted July 27, 2015 #4 Share Posted July 27, 2015 They clearly were on the same itinerary as your ship. Seems you both had lots of fun with each other. It's all good. !!! :)/B] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marco Posted July 27, 2015 #5 Share Posted July 27, 2015 If it's a Caribbean cruise if it's leaving from the same port on the same day, frequently they end up in tandem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitemare Posted July 27, 2015 #6 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Is Captain Francesco Schettino at the helm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted July 27, 2015 #7 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Is Captain Francesco Schettino at the helm? Really? Did they ever recover all the bodies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruckerDave Posted July 27, 2015 #9 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) Really? Did they ever recover all the bodies?

Sail smaller ships and you'll go to more ports that giant ships can't readily visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
